8. It depends on how opinions are expressed.

Every Jewish person I know well is and has been opposed to Israel's actions, for decades. Their synagogues routinely protest Israeli actions. For decades. Many Americans - including many Jewish Americans and even many Jewish people in Israel - can disagree with Israel's policies and actions without extending that to bigotry against Jewish people in general.

When people say things to my friends like "Jews take things away from other people," or "Don't bring your kids to Hebrew School today, we're going to bomb it," or throw red paint on Jewish people's homes, etc., then I'm going to accuse those people of antisemitism.
